If you’re feeling frustrated and discouraged by investing in oversaturated real estate markets, where competition is fierce and returns are diminishing, then you are not alone! Many real estate investors find themselves caught in a cycle of bidding wars, low rental yields, and limited growth opportunities in popular markets.

👉the opportunities and trials that the Vermont property market offers.
👉how to supervise properties in minute markets, even from a distance.
